Please note, IATE courses do not qualify for government education funding. As such, students cannot fund our courses via the Student or Advanced Learner Loans.
IATE is not eligible for student funding as a private institution as we do not have degree awarding powers. Students on UEL validated courses should note that because of the type of contract UEL has with IATE, students at IATE cannot apply for Student Loan Company funding via UEL currently.

Please note
In order to fulfil the training hour requirements our regulatory bodies, only one or two ordinary days training may be missed depending on your training programme. Please note: this does not include Core Lecture Days, all of which must be attended in full. Should additional days be missed, they must be made up and paid for separately in addition to the original fees, please speak with your Academic Officer to discuss and arrange payment. Students with extenuating circumstances may be exempt from paying. Students who believe they have extenuating circumstances must apply via their Academic Officer attaching medical evidence as support. In some cases, it is possible to attend certain sessions with the next year's intake.
Personal Therapy
Students must be in weekly personal therapy for all training leading to professional registration/accreditation. Personal therapy generally costs between £35-£65 per session.
Supervision
Students are required to be in supervision once they start to see clients (from the second year of training). Supervision is likely to cost £50 per session. A minimum of 1 hour’s supervision per four client hours is required when students start their practice. The cost of supervision can be less if you are working in a low-cost public clinic. Sometimes supervision is included with the placements.
